Chapter 328: The Battle of the Zhong Family's Army (Ask for Subscription)
"General, it's the Bingzhou Army and the Jingzhou Army who are here, and now they are camping twenty miles outside the city, should we rush and kill for a while? Kill the spirit of the coalition. The lieutenant said excitedly.
Hua Xiong's prestige in Yuan Shu's army is very high, although the time of refuge is not long, but Hua Xiong has conquered the hearts of the soldiers in the army with martial arts, in addition to Yuan Shu and Zhang Xun in the army, the soldiers admire Hua Xiong.
"Can you find out who is leading the army, and how many people are in the state army?" Hua Xiong hurriedly asked.
"General, there are about 10,000 enemy vanguards, and there are about 5,000 Jingzhou troops, but they are all old and weak, and it only takes one charge of our army to defeat them, which is a great merit." The adjutant general's face turned red and he was excited.
"So it seems that there are 5,000 people in the state army? Can you see the banner of the state army? Hua Xiong ignored the excited lieutenant general and continued to ask.
The adjutant general glanced at Hua Xiong suspiciously, in the past, when facing the Jingzhou army, Hua Xiong was a fierce general who dared to lead two thousand cavalry to charge, and there were 20,000 soldiers and horses in the camp, why did he become timid.
"And the banner of the state army? Oh, there's a strange wolf flag, and a flying eagle flag. The adjutant said truthfully.
Yuan Shu naturally did not boast about how powerful the state was in the army, and the army of the state instilled in the soldiers was not enough, and he also scoffed at the matter of the state break, and the generals in the army did not pay enough attention to the state.
"Fly ride, wolf ride." Hua Xiong's pupils shrank suddenly, he is a person who has fought with the wolf horse, the courage of the wolf horse, he has already experienced it, known as the most elite Xiliang iron cavalry in the Xiliang army, has suffered losses in the hands of the wolf horse, not to mention those cavalry in Yuan Shu's army, when facing the Jingzhou army, he may be able to be majestic, and when he encounters the wolf horse, he will only be defeated, and a thousand wolf horses may be able to defeat the three thousand cavalry in the camp.
"Investigate the situation of the state army in detail, and no one is allowed to fight without the order of General Ben!" Huaxiong Road.
Seeing Hua Xiong's solemn tone, although the deputy general was puzzled, he still conveyed it.
"There are flying horses and wolf riders, and if you want to win this time, I'm afraid it's extremely difficult." Hua Xiong muttered.
Yuan Shu deliberately ignored the strength of the Bingzhou army in the army, and over the years, he knew that the Bingzhou army had trained a cavalry that was no less than the original wolf cavalry, sweeping Xianbei, and it seemed to be the most elite cavalry in the Bingzhou army, that is, the flying cavalry led by Lu Bu.
In Anfeng City, Yuan Shu learned that the vanguard of the coalition army arrived outside the city, and the generals in the army performed differently, and the generals who were promoted later were naturally rubbing shoulders and wanted to show their skills in the vanguard of the coalition army, and learned that there was a merger state army in the vanguard army, and the generals who followed Yuan Shu for a long time remained silent.
Yuan Shu learned that the Bingzhou army was encamped twenty miles outside the city, and his expression was also slightly stagnant, thinking that he had 60,000 troops in his hands, but he was relieved, no matter how strong the Bingzhou army was, it was impossible to defeat the 100,000 army with 5,000 people.
"The minister asks for war, and I implore the Son of Heaven to agree, and I am willing to lead an army of three thousand to break the vanguard of the army of rebels." Lei Bo came out of the line.
"I am willing to bring 3,000 soldiers and horses to break the vanguard of the rebels." Qiao Rui also stood up not to be outdone.
"Minister, please fight."
"Minister, please fight."
Seeing that the generals in the army asked for battle, Yuan Shu was overjoyed, "With your help, why can't you break the thief army, but the vanguard of the thief army has 10,000 people, so you should slowly plan it." ”
The general Zhang Xun came out and said: "Shengshang, according to the report of the spies, although there are 10,000 thieves in the vanguard, of which 5,000 are the old and weak in Jingzhou, there is no need to worry, and the hussar general Hua Xiong is brave and good at fighting, but he is afraid of the battle, so he can lead the elite soldiers to break the thief vanguard to strengthen the prestige of our army." ”
Huaxiong's martial arts are strong, and his prestige in the army faintly overwhelms Zhang Xun, which also makes Zhang Xun very dissatisfied.
"Holy Lord, the minister is willing to lead his troops and horses out of the city to meet the battle." Lei Bo stepped forward again, he was a general who later joined Yuan Shu's army, so he naturally wanted to show it, now Yuan Shu is the Son of Heaven, if he can win a big victory, it is obvious that he will get a lot of credit.
"Lei Bo, Qiao Rui, and Li Dou, order the three of you to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses out of the city to fight, and order Huaxiong to lead 3,000 cavalry to respond." Yuan Shu thought about it for a while, and said slowly.
"Whoa." The three of them hugged their fists, and unlike the excited Lei Bo and Qiao Rui, Li Dou seemed a little absent-minded.
Li Dou was originally Ji Ling's deputy general, when Yuan Shu attacked the Bingzhou army, he was defeated by the Bingzhou army, Ji Ling was trapped in the valley, life and death were unknown, and later learned that Ji Ling had taken refuge in the state, Yuan Shu was furious, it was the officials under his command who embarrassed Ji Ling's family, Yuan Shu did not stop him, Li Dou followed Ji Ling for many years, understood Ji Ling's temperament, and categorically would not take refuge in the state, if there was no Li Dou's help, Ji Ling's wife and children may not be able to wait for the arrival of the eagle soldiers.
After Ji Ling took refuge in the state, Yuan Shu naturally did not pretend to be Ji Ling's deputy general, and was not reused, and even the later Lei Bo and Qiao Rui were reused, but Li Dou stood still, and now he is still a partial general in the army.
Originally, Li Dou was extremely hostile to the Bingzhou Army, but what happened to the Ji family gradually made him a little disheartened, but in the army, Li Dou loved the soldiers, won the support of the soldiers, and trained the soldiers in a very orderly manner.
After receiving Yuan Shu's order, Hua Xiong was also helpless, so he had to lead 3,000 cavalry to suppress the formation of the army and fight with the Bingzhou army, he was not optimistic, not that the soldiers under Yuan Shu's command were not elite enough, but that the Bingzhou army was too strong, so strong that people did not want to fight against it.
Let's say that Lei Bo and Qiao Rui led 5,000 soldiers and horses to the vanguard of the coalition army to fight, looking at the army behind him, Lei Bo's confidence soared, these are the elite of the army, the soldiers in the army, and they have also experienced many battles, if they can't win like this, the two of them feel that they really have no shame to go back to see Yuan Shu, as for sending Hua Xiong to lead 3,000 cavalry to suppress the formation, it is completely unnecessary in the eyes of the two.
Before the arrival of the army, the two also found out that in addition to the state army, the Jingzhou army was a group of old and weak.
Knowing that Yuan Shu's army was fighting outside the camp, Lu Bu was quite surprised, could it be that Yuan Shu's military strength in Huainan had been developed over the years, and he dared to ignore the existence of the state army, after Yuan Shao's first death, in the face of the princes, he was also a lot more cautious, the princes did not have elite soldiers, such as the tiger and leopard cavalry of the Cao army, they were also elite, and if they did not pay attention to it, it could lead to the rout of the army.
Lu Bu immediately gathered the generals in the army.
Yuan Shu's army fought a battle, which made the generals of the Bingzhou army overjoyed, and many of the generals had fought with Yuan Shu at the beginning, and they had a great psychological advantage against Yuan Shu.
